We have two lemon trees indoors by the bi-folds.

They are doing well apart from the aphids.

From recent Googling the biological controls are not available yet

Spraying advice doesn't seem to include Citrus in the UK.

Any recommendations?
More importantly, anything NOT to use?

They can be considered ornamental at the moment because they are
showing no sign of flowering.

Bayer seem to have the answer:-

vegetable-insect-control/questions-answers

I have never used this chemical, so this is not a recommendation, but
hope it helps.

Unfortunately it is not listed in this country.
The only real citrus-related product Bayer list is the Baby Bio citrus
food.

Presumably citrus growing in the UK is such a minority pastime that they
don't brand products for it.
